Actually the E (diEs irAE) are more like E in "Eight". The A is not pronounced.
The S is like in "Sight".
And the accents are on EE and EE (dìes ìrae).

ohhhhh now you have the "Dies Irae" from Mozart's Requiem playing in my head forever....i think that's called an "ear worm" according to lovely Bob...
"Mozart makes you believe in God - it cannot be by chance that such a phenomenon arrives into this world and then passes after 36 yrs, leaving behind such an unbounded no. of unparalled masterpieces"
